Teddy Atlas on ESPN is ripping boxing pretty bad... I may have to download the fight tomorrow and check it out.

The fight wasn't even close. This will set the sport back! No one will watch or want to pay for boxing with judges like this in the sport.

I'm a big Bradley fan who knows he was totally outclassed. The only reason I can fathom for Arum to orchestrate this is the rematch clause which was in place well before the fight began. Thus stated, who'd want to watch this fight again???

I was shocked. I don't even think it was that close. Should have been unanimous for Pacquiao. But that is how boxing is. It is a dying sport. I wouldn't be surprised if the fight was fixed to stir up some controversy. I suppose they believe there is no such thing as bad publicity. Stats from ESPN:

................Pacquiao....Bradley
Landed......190...........109
Thrown......493...........390
Pct...........38.5...........27.7
* Pacquiao +82 in power punches landed

Maybe Bradley won 1 or 2 rounds. Maybe.

Bradley was tweeting about the Novemeber rematch before the fight.

I think it was fixed for the rematch... My only question is this -- who the hell would want to order the rematch after that debacle?
